Signs stop cars from blocking vital access for fire trucks and at a safe distance from school busses.
Make sure to provide access for fire trucks and fire-suppression operations – on both public streets and you parking lots or driveway. Fire lanes need to have signs both at the beginning and at the end of the fire lane. Although most schools space the signs so that they can be seen frequently – make sure, at the most, to not to exceed seventy-five feet between signs.
In many jurisdictions, any vehicle stopped or parked within a designated fire lane may be towed at the vehicle owner’s expense. Use a Fire Lane Tow Away sign.
Make to consult with your fire department for particular recommendations, including striping, dimensions for a fire lane and other warning devices.
